Hi! My name is Ana, I'm a proud Brazilian woman (please leave your biases at the door). I live in the countryside with my four beloved dogs - Catucha, Pitoco, Pipoca and Lucky. I love studying - specially languages and culture and general.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people and new cultures.

Interests

Meet new people, help other good people. I love animals - specially dogs - I have four. I also love nature, even though I'm not really into sports (I am a sorrow loser). I L-O-V-E language in general and my purpose in live is to learn as much as possible in this area. I have 'some' experience in cooking.

Music, Movies, and Books

Well, I like a lot of different styles of music, being rock, pop, indie and electronic music the main styles I listen to. In the 'movies department' I like the fantasy and comedy section most, but I occasionally watch some sci-fy, drama, etc. I pretty much read anything I can possibly put my hands on (books in Brasil are expensive). My favorites Brazilian authors are Rubem Fonseca, Jorge Amado and Machado de Assis. I love Shakespeare, Tolkien, Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte and many, many other authors that I can't remember the name right now.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm independent (maybe too much?). It seems like a mundane thing, but it isn't.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd be happy to teach Portuguese. I'd love to learn about your language and culture.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a good cook (I think), and I am a great drink buddy, since I don't drink too much. I'm used to being the "mom" of the group, so you can rely on me if you want to get crazy: I probably won't follow, but I also won't let you sleep in the street :P
I also make weird jokes, which I think is a plus. Isn't it?

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Canada
